Patient's question:
After I took the birth control pill, then now my period is delayed. What should I do if my period is delayed after taking the birth control pill?Doctor's answer:
Taking birth control pills can cause delayed menstruation, which is a normal phenomenon. The actual effect of birth control pills is to regulate the level of endocrine hormones and promote delayed menopause. If you experience delayed menstruation again, it is recommended to pay attention to preventing cold in the body and avoid eating extremely cold, refrigerated, and spicy foods. Three menstrual cycles after taking birth control pills should return to normal. If menstrual disorders persist for a long time, it is recommended to promptly undergo hormone level testing and receive targeted treatment based on the test results.
